Become a Sustainer by Contributing $5, $10, $15 or $25 per month!
In October 2009, Intermedia Arts was on the brink of a "near death" financial experience. But individually and collectively you made it clear that you would not allow Intermedia Arts, one of this country's most renowned community art centers, to die. Together, we worked to renew and strengthen this organization. And, today I am delighted to tell you that, with your contributions and support, Intermedia Arts has come roaring back to life. And what a comeback it has been!
During fiscal year 2010, we nurtured more than 1,000 artists, delighted 21,000 community participants, and educated and inspired 1,200 young people ages twelve to twenty-one. We rebuilt our staff and programs, worked in new neighborhoods and community libraries, inspired more families to share their heritage, and helped artists create theater, dance, music, film and images. We touched more people with the extraordinary power of the arts because of the contributions of people like you. We were able to accomplish this remarkable turnaround through the dedicated work of our staff and board, and through the amazing support of people like you.
I wish I could tell you that we now have all the resources we need to continue this incredible work. But, we still have a long way to go. Right now, there are young people whose voices and talents need to be developed who have not yet been reached. There are emerging artists whose creativity needs to be nurtured who are still silent. And, there are neighborhoods and families that are still divided that need to be strengthened and brought together through the power of the arts. That is why I am asking YOU to help sustain the change.
Your regular monthly contribution of $10, $15 or $25 dollars is your way of saying "I believe in the strength and creativity of young people, artists, and families and I want to be part of the future of this incredible organization."

Sincerely,
Theresa Sweetland
Executive/Artistic Director
